Will these 'green' cars deliver in the real world?
First of all Toyota's MPG figures are determined by EPA testing. These are average numbers some people do better some not as well. For your information over almost two years now I never had even one tank at or below the EPA MPG. My lifetime MPG = 59.5 MPG (US gallons) well above the EPA figure. There are many other Prius drives who do even better - check here:

Neil Winton, do you consider yourself an automotive expert? Yes? So why are you posting false statements about hybrid cars not delivering the promised results? The previous generation Prius promised combined average of 46 US-MPG, right? So please realize that in reality, 517 drivers of these cars got average combined fuel consumption of 5,2 litres/100 km = 45,2 US-MPG (Source: Spritmonitor). Some drivers got more, some less but the average expected fuel economy is just that. So why are you lying here, saying the Prius II returns 34 MPG?
